"Male and female models, nude and clothed, were photographed in all manner of activity - walking, running, laying bricks, climbing stairs, fencing, jumping. Muybridge even photographed one girl throwing a bucket of water over another girl's shoulders, and a mother spanking a child[1]. His specific intention was to create an atlas for the use of artists, a visual dictionary of human and animal forms in action." --The history of photography, from 1839 to the present day, Beaumont Newhall, 1964.
